YOur statement , quoted above, does NOT say that 42.6% of the people in California are illegal aliens. It says that 42.6% of the illegal aliens in the country are in California. Two different things. It's still a lot, but not nearly as much.
I think California's population is around 37 million, an the estimate of illegals in the US that the UI figure are based on, is around 11 million. So, if you believe all the above numbers, the number of illegals in california is around 4.7 million, not 15+ million.
I don't think the CCR site includes county jails, but I am not sure. I'm sure LA county jail is mostly hispanic, and maybe illegals, but there are lots of other jails that are not. The CCR figures show 33% of all their inmates are from LA, so unless the LA jail population is a lot more than 33% of all the jail populations inthe state, it wouldn'ts budge the figures much -- but that's worth looking into, if you're being scholarly.

I went to GOOGLE to enter said term. I then entered WIKIPEDIA.
Apparently a massive operation took place in 1954. It was called Operation (something or other). One million persons were removed South of the Border.
Yer resident Limey at work 'ere. I think we all need a good laugh and relax,after a bit of a fire fight. IMHO.
I'm not sure the title of that article is a good analogy - as has been pointed out in this thread, Irish immigration of the 19th century was legal, Mexican immigration today is not.
The "analogy" is a load of Blarney!
Hi, Irish T!
You Rebs had a lot of Irish Mercenaries on your side as well including a lot of my mothers family.
HEHE, Blarney!!
Legend has it that the Blarney Stone is just tourist trap for Americans!! :)
I'm fine. how are you La En?
Legend has it ... LOL! I went to Blarney Castle and I wouldn't kiss that slimey old rock if you paid me.. the view from up there is great though! I'm not much of a Cork person, can't understand what they're saying anyway! Haha.
I like the west and the northwest.
I'm just foihn. Hehe.
I can't even understand what Corkonians are saying!!
I like the west and the northwest.
I'm a Mayoman, and Sligo is a good place!
Once, when I was taking the boat out to Inis Mor, there was this Cork man talking to me. I could swear he was speaking Swedish or something!
I had a great time in Galway, Clare, Mayo and Donegal, to name of few! Great crac in Bundoran..
Bundoran is Ireland's Las Vegas!!
This is funny, I was just advising someone on another thread to take a trip to Vegas...
There's another town a little ways up from Bundoran, also starts with a 'B'... that may be the one I was thinking of, not sure.
The only common bond between the Irish and Mexicans is the lying thieving racist demagogue Democrats who exploited immigrants.
And for the Irish those bonds exist to this day in form or fashion.
Buncrana?
Ballyshannon!
I think that's where we stayed in the pub after hours and had the most wonderful music session!
HEHE, lock-down!!
Happy hostages...!
I hope the Guards didn't raid!!
There's no fact so solid and immutable that a brain-dead liberal can't beat it into submission.
Legal? Illegal? What's the difference, so long as they CARE more deeply and painfully than normal people?
